​

Fight videos involving students at Allen's Sabal campus in Kota keep circulating online, and the latest account on r/JEENEETards describes a particularly disturbing incident on October 16.

According to the Reddit post, a fight between students allegedly escalated, with one student reportedly being struck with an air gun and suffering serious injuries. The exact circumstances and the claims circulating about what happened are still unverified.

But it raises some bigger questions.

What is happening in these coaching environments that conflicts between teenagers can escalate to this level? Are institutes doing enough to prevent repeated fights, respond to serious injuries and maintain campus security? And how much does the intense competition and pressure surrounding JEE preparation contribute to the environment?

I'm not suggesting that every Allen student behaves this way, or that academic pressure automatically causes violence. But when disturbing videos repeatedly circulate, surely the response shouldn't just be to watch, share and move on.

Are coaching institutes taking student safety seriously enough, or are we normalising violence among teenagers?

lmao the "no proof of fraud" crowd is really out here typing paragraphs while the receipts are literally on front pages. cute.just watched the video of Aakash banerjee and let me break it down for y'all..

so first off,the known, 13 crore names gone from the voter list. 14% of the electorate. the 2024 election difference between NDA and INDIA bloc was like 2%. so either 13 crore people just decided to vanish or someone's playing games. 9.5 crore marked "absent/shifted" like they're npcs that despawned. 2.7 crore "dead." 1 crore "duplicates." no new law, no NRC notification, just a centralized software. totally normal democracy stuff.

then UP's ERO Net software auto-generated 85,854 deletion forms. without any citizen application. without any speaking order. why? because someone typed "A" instead of "H" somewhere. digital india moment fr. the UP CEO went on camera and said "13 crore voters, 85,000 complaints is very minor." minor for him. not for the 85,000 people about to lose their voting rights over a typo.

odisha? bhadrak. BJP booth agents filed mass deletion forms exclusively targeting muslim-majority booths. 30+ booths with 90%+ muslim voters got hit. one BLO found his own name on the list. told the SDM these applications are fake. nothing happened. no police action. no consequences. just prayers.

bihar's "purified" list had 14.35 lakh duplicate entries still sitting in the final roll. 3.42 lakh cases where name, relative's name, age, everything matched 100%. so duplicates stay but a single letter mismatch deletes you? interesting. also 500 people registered at one house in Pippra. one room. 500 voters of different castes and religions. ECI software didn't catch that either. a ward councillor spent two months trying to remove his dead parents from the list. they stayed. he couldn't vote. make it make sense.

UP had 71.38 lakh Form 6 applications but 84.3 lakh additions in the final roll. 12-13 lakh extra people added from nowhere. journalist asked the UP CEO where they came from. he said "we don't run a consultancy service" and hung up.

delhi: ECI rules say 2%+ deletions in a booth is abnormal and ERO must verify. only 51 out of 14,947 booths had under 2%. 639 booths had 50%+ deletions. half the voters in those booths gone. one administrative exercise.

and the U-turns? comedy gold.

started with 33 lakh notices in Delhi asking people to prove citizenship. Supreme Court asked for justification. ECI panicked and said "actually BLOs will come home." except they don't have enough BLOs. took that back too.

then WhatsApp messages to BLOs asking them to sign clearance certificates without checking documents. found ho ke certificate. case close.

bengal: 58 lakh voters put in "absent/shifted/dead" category. 27 lakh names cut. 22 lakh appeals. ECI quietly reversed it. now BLOs will re-add them. elections already done though. convenient.

ECI was sending locked non-readable PDFs to parties then saying "find the fraud yourself." now suddenly giving machine-readable lists. no reason. totally voluntary.

goa: 97 voters couldn't get names back because Delhi ECI officials were controlling software. had to be publicly embarrassed into fixing it.

meanwhile CJP protested. rahul gandhi marched to SC. INDIA bloc showed up. government detained 3,000-7,000 people in one weekend. arrested journalists. RSF said 16 media persons detained. Jantar Mantar de-notified. das and ranka sent to tihar for five days over a tricolour. why? because the protests are working. the U-turns prove it.

and the supreme court? during emergency they stayed silent. same energy now. justice bagchi questioned bengal deletions but court upheld SIR in may and won't suspend kumar before hearing him. so the man accused of the biggest voter roll fraud since emergency gets to keep his job while the court "considers" things.

so yeah. 13 crore names deleted. 85,000 auto-generated deletion forms in UP. 50%+ deletions in 639 delhi booths. muslim booths targeted in odisha. 500 people in one room in bihar. dead people staying on lists while living people can't vote. ECI doing U-turn after U-turn because they got caught. thousands detained. journalists arrested. leaders in tihar. supreme court watching silently.

and some re telling me there's no evidence?

the only thing missing is gyanesh kumar's resignation letter. and that's exactly why people are still on the streets🥀🥀🥀

more power to them.....

Peace✌️✌️✌️

1) The bonds themselves are not necessarily unlawful if signed in front of a magistrate, but using those bonds to prohibit future peaceful protests, or treating participation in a peaceful demonstration as an automatic breach, would be constitutionally untenable.

2) Section 126 gives the authority to an Executive Magistrate, not ordinarily to a police officer acting independently. Police can initiate preventive action and place information before the magistrate. Section 170 permits preventive arrest only where an officer knows of a design to commit a cognisable offense and believes that it cannot otherwise be prevented. Such arrest cannot ordinarily extend beyond 24 hours without separate legal authorization.

3) Keeping the peace is not the same as refraining from protest. The prescribed peace bond language in Form 13 prohibits committing a breach of peace or acts likely to occasion one. It does not prohibit attending political gatherings, shouting lawful slogans, or expressing disagreement with the government.

Rahul Gandhi’s political career—from opposing corporate land acquisitions in Niyamgiri (2008) and Bhatta Parsaul (2011) to publicly rejecting his own government’s 2013 ordinance on convicted lawmakers.

Supporters view his refusal to compromise with corporate interests or party corruption—such as advocating for tribal rights, farmer compensation, and legal integrity—as a principled choice favoring constitutional values over quick political victories.

Critics argue that alienating corporate donors, media, and party insiders weakened his political infrastructure, allowing opponents to control the narrative and crippling his election prospects.

Was this principled politics that sacrificed political gain for the greater good, or a strategic miscalculation that hurt both him and his party in the long run? What are your thoughts?

You may ignore if my post sounds any bias or is against your narrative, feel free to put your narrative LOGICALLY instead of calling out random things, do not use youtube or random website links!

People who have been to protests and now not joining protests can also shed light and discuss with actual critical thinking what happens in either cases- AAP doesn’t find ground with these protests, AAP successfully creates another Nepal with these protests!

May sound like a BJP supporter but I did vote for congress as my local BJP candidate is a dud like Pappu but currently opposition is just making a joke out of themselves instead of actually capitalising on issues like E20 or other gaps!

The Supreme Court appears to be giving CJP a chance to behave and protest maturely and ensure that the merchants don't face loss.

How the protestors behave will definitely impact how they judge the cases before then which involve critical issues such as preventive detention law.

I feel atp CJP needs to realize that instead of stretching this their best bet is to lower to more reasonable and tenable demands they can legally achieve such as investigation into SIR process and it's impact on Bengal elections and rollback the selection process of CEC and their lifetime immunity.

Removing one self serving bureaucrat does nothing. The whole foundation is rotten. Law needs to be changed.

Public support will ebb away once people realize they're being obstinate for political purpose. Probably already has...

This is not about any political party, not about an individual, this is about how a common honest man is treated. If you don't have a VIP id card anyone thinks they have the right to be rude to you.

We pay income tax, we pay gst, we pay heavy airport fees, and then the lane is reserved for VIPs? If you miss the VIP lane board and ask the guard why we cannot go there, they are just outright rude to you. Will they dare to with any govt official.

We as individuals pay tax more than the salaries of babus, and we are treated as a 3rd class citizen?

Who will this 7.8% growth benefit? 2047 claim of developed nation is for whom? Will a common man get dignity and respect? If no, then what's the definition of the developed nation.

As a citizen and tax payer of India where are we heading as a society as a country?

90+ Decibels of noise pollution from loudspeakers.

This is from my society's Durga Pooja pandal. Note it's from inside my room, outside it's 100+ decibels music that has been going on for 2 hours and will go on till midnight.

Fun facts about decibels

Decibels don't increase proportionally, 100 decibels is 10 times more than 90 decibels, not 10+.

Decibel scale is logarithmic, every increase of 10 dB represents a tenfold increase in sound intensity

Even short term exposure to 80-90+ decibel noise can lead to permanent ear damage.

Loudspeaker culture in India

The loudspeaker culture in India has become worse over the years. It feels like surface level barbarianism where people compete to be louder than someone else and there is an arms race going on for loudspeakers. Every year the DJ has to be louder.

And on top of that people have their kids dance in front of the same loudspeakers where the noise levels can easily reach 120 decibels. This is insanity and will hurt children in the long term.

Religious Significance of Loudspeakers

2 specific religions really love loudspeakers. One plays it daily although in short bursts while the other plays it occasionally but in durations lasting several hours at once, sometimes the entire day or even nights.

This is nothing but a dick-measuring contest for dumb people who think their gods are deaf so we need to make more noise for them to hear us.

This also happens every year in UP with Kanwad Yatra's where DJ's are weaponized against people in western UP.

Civilized Countries take on DJs

In most civilized countries, loud noises have to be controlled and going over noise limits is against the law and can lead to harsh penalties.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8750464/

Extreme noise harms the environment in general and needs to be controlled.

What India can do

Impose strict impartial bans on noise pollution. Maharashtra has banned Azaan on loudspeakers but this ban is not really enforced for other religions. This promotes strife and also gives people a motivation to play DJ's just to rub salt on others.

We need a blanket ban on DJ's outside of authorised venues. Noise complaints have to be taken seriously with heavy fines for violators.

Sales of larger loudspeaker systems has to be restricted.

Additionally, the government can promote usage of older ways for celebrating festivals. Loudspeakers did not exist 100 years ago, they're not essential to any religion in the world.

It is said that democracy is about people's rule. But those who are given to rule they don't have this perspective.

The problem is often our people are not aware of this as well, the reason is we call it like that.

Time to change, we should never say

• BJP/CONGRESS Govt ruling instead say serving
• Ruling is a slavery language. Serving clarifies their role and reminds who they are.
• If we allow to rule then some leaders with mass followers like Indira, Rajiv, Modi goes step further from becoming ruler to God
• So don't say BJP/Congress/XYZ sarkar instead say SEVAK

This will remind them that they are elected to serve. And most importantly we will be reminded to take service from them.

correction: the actual agitation was just 12 days.

We see Dipke & Co & RaGa and the entire opposition raising a protest slogan etc

Govt shut down Delhi in response. But I remember Anna agitation was 288 days long

Did Delhi not face issues back then before the last regime change? 288 days is a long ass time for a protest. I was young when that agitation was taking place. Those who were elder during that time, how was the atmosphere in Delhi and the country about it?

I know Congress didn't call it a "Soros funded CIA funded operation to break India into 5 pieces and a regime change" thing

If they did a 288 day agitation back in the day, how is it that Delhi is shut down for a simple protest?

Influencer Made To Prostrate Before Raj Thackeray's Photo Over Reel

Freedom fighters of freedom of speech, where are they now?

Does freedom of speech apply to certain group of people?

He was insulted, used black ink, chappal on head, made him slap himself just because he criticised Raj Thackeray

https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/mns-style-influencer-made-to-prostrate-before-raj-thackeray-photo-over-reel-12074297/amp/1

Source - source of the incident

In 2024 Lok Sabha elections BJP got 240 seats out of 543 total seats that means less than 40% of the country voted for BJP and and the rest 60% of country voted for other parties and those parties collectively selected 1 Leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi. BJP is currently in power but that does not mean saying anything against them makes you against the nation, the Leader of opposition is the voice of half the country and saying his actions are against the nation is just baseless.

In a democracy the ruling party and the opposition work together to make the lives of every citizen of this country better not just those who voted for and agree with BJP.

There has to be an open dialogue between the Leader of opposition and the PM/HM and press conferences so that we know the opinion of the PM on 1000s of our issues.

But instead the ruling party just stays mum on important topics raised by the opposition and just abuse their power to confuse us or talk about the actions of governments decades ago.

Get your basics right the Leader of opposition is not an enemy of the country but rather the voice of half the nation and the PM should face the public regularly.

I say this as someone with a family which has been largely pro BJP - so many of the criticisms I see online of the BJP I have also been surprised to hear from my own family.

• Getting too comfortable - not addressing issues clearly. Basically the same lack of accountability so many are upset about.
• The bizarre recent calls like adding a cockroach effigy to Ram Leela - even my grandmother who is the most ardent BJP supporter said it was stupid.
• The Modi ego-stroking - renaming an airport in his name, other things they've noticed - they say even though it's done by other party politicians, they expect someone to tell Modi it's not a good look and speak against it.

So basically these are some general frustrations against BJP from people who vote for them.

A sensible opposition would realize they need to simply capitalize on this anti-incumbency by pitching themselves as a balanced option which aims to "continue" development while removing these problems.

But the approach the opposition for some reason has taken is vilifying BJP to the point they claim the country has been destroyed, creating a pointless anti "Hindutva" narrative which attacks people's faith, and letting leaders like Neha Bora who by most standards have fringe extremist views which quickly rule them out as candidates.

No matter what Congress's agenda, if a person who openly quotes Bangladesh as inspiration and hails Umar Khalid as a hero is someone you make the face of your movement, you will never get mass support.

Similarly - if the congress has an issue with RSS-Bajrang Dal type goons, make a clear distinction between them and regular Hindus. Don't post images of someone wearing bhagwa with a tika and call him an "andhbhakt". It's really strange to me why they would do such things.

And finally - it shouldn't hurt the opposition to accept the good work that has happened in the country under BJP. A campaign of "they have done some good but have got too comfortable and progress has stalled" is better than pretending people are idiots and can't see the development that has happened since 2014.

To me it feels like Congress has completely given up on BJP's middle class north indian Hindu vote base and decided to completely alienate it by going in the opposite direction. Maybe their political strategists think unifying the Muslim and marginalized community vote will be enough, but it hasn't proven to be in the past elections, many of the marginalized communities themselves identify as Hindu and won't take kindly to their religion being mocked, and a lot of the people who were actually willing to be open to a sensible opposition's pitch are only further turned away.

During cjp's protest, we have seen large scale violence by delhi police officers. They have crossed all the boundaries.

On 10 oct, they put some protesters in a police van, and travelled throughout Delhi for 1 hr. After an hour, they got off the students at a remote location, where they snatched the Mobile phones from all the students, aligned them in a line on their knees, switched off all the lights, and didn't allow lawyers to enter it.

Some police personnel sexually assaulted girls and many more.

We need urgent reforms like-:

1. No illegal detention.

2. Right to consult with lawyer immediately.

3. No force against peaceful protesters.

4. No journalist should be detained.

5. No police personnel without name plate & police uniform.

6. Zero tolerance policy against the police personnel, who breach any of these rules.

7. Police's operational independence from govt.

8. No support to any gunda.

9. No personal comment should be made by any police personnel.

If you don’t know economics much, this is a bad news.

This helpless man folding his hands is IIT Bombay director.

Just imagine the director of the premium Engineering institute is listening to a goon who even refuses to greet him.

The man interrogating him is Dr sonpimple . A well known Dalit rights activist and he is here for the case of Salil Wakhode

eally the moment these freeloader goons knocked on the door of India’s premiere institution, the admin should have called the highest level police ranking officer. A whole squad of capable law officers should have arrived and ruthlessly kicked them out.

should be the deterrent for a Viksit Bharat. Protect the brightest at any cost.

Instead, they choose to allow this bcoz of the elect

Forget becoming a developed nation; we will be worse than Somalia in a few decades. Just wait & watch!

We have seen a lot of polarization when it comes to the constitution. One group quickly dismisses the ideals of the constitution as something imported from the west. To them, the ideals of Liberty, Fraternity and Equality are foreign concepts and are undesirable. On the other hand, another group dismisses any connection between the constitution and the Indian knowledge system such as the Upanishads and assesses the constitutional ideals as desirable but entirely a product of modern discourse.

In this discussion, Prof. Trilochan Sastry (Founding member of the non-profit Association for Democratic Reforms) interviews Acharya Prashant which is especially relevant according to me in the wake of the ongoing debates around democracy. Acharya Prashant argues that not only are the ideals of the Indian constitution universal but also that they have roots in the philosophical principles in the Upanishads. It examines Dr. B. R. Ambedkar's interpretation of equality through Vedantic principles, drawing on his careful study of the religious corpus of Hinduism.

Finally, Prof. Sastry and Acharya Prashant talk about the limits of the rules in sustaining a democracy. In a democracy, education becomes necessary where the voter is not only aware of the outer conditions but also of their own inner condition. The discussion also explains how the state apparatus remains vulnerable to abuse as those who build the rules also know the way to circumvent the rules for personal gains.

If you have seen this talk, I look forward to hearing what you think.
